I wish to extend a “Big Thank You” to my family, friends, neighbors and relatives for the cards, calls, concerns and gifts, and most of all the prayers, which were answered while in the hospital and since returning home. Thank you Fr. Ross Burkhalter for the special visit and prayers in the hospital. And I can’t forget to all who brought food to our home. We live in a “caring” community and we thank God for all our blessings.

We express our heartfelt thanks to all who kept us in their thoughts and prayers, expressed condolences, and sent cards, flowers, and memorials when we lost our dad, grandpa and great-grandpa. Thank you to Fr. Ross Burkhalter for the wonderful funeral service, and to Deacon Wiehn for the wake service and help with the funeral. To Tony and Dean, we can’t thank you enough for all that you did to make this time easier for us. Thank you, Rosie, and the St. Boniface choir for the beautiful music; the Altar Society for the delicious lunch; and the ladies who provided lunch after the wake service. Our sincere gratitude to Legion Post #229 and VFW Post #5816 for providing military rites. Dad was proud to call Elgin his home for many years. Thank you for being such a fine, caring community. God’s blessings to all of you. Sincerely,

Don and Janice Mollhoff and family

ALBION — Having defeated Stanton in a regular season matchup, the Wolfpack couldn’t corral the Mustangs at the C2-4 Subdistrict volleyball tournament Monday night.
Behind the strong net play of Rachel Brandl, the Mustangs (23-9) swept the Wolfpack 25-18, 25-18 and 25-22 to end EPPJ’s season.
In each of the first two sets the Wolfpack held an early lead only to see Stanton charge ahead and take control.
In the third set, Stanton jumped out to a 20 to 12 lead. Chelsi Mescher and Madi Voborny’s stuff block at the net sparked a run whereby the Wolfpack played their best volleyball of the match.
Mescher, Stephanie Bode and Voborny had kills at the net and the team got an ace serve to pull within 23 to 19, forcing the Mustangs to call a timeout.

ELGIN — The Franklin Flyers were defeated when they stepped off the bus Thursday afternoon to face Elgin Public-Pope John in the opening round of the Class D-1 State Football Playoffs.
Unaware that Elgin had received approximately two inches of wet snow in the early morning hours Thursday, the Flyers weren’t ready for the weather conditions and fell to the Wolfpack by the score of 56 to 0.
The Wolfpack managed to stay warm on the sidelines, thanks to a ‘hot’ offense which scored nearly every time they had the ball in the first half.
What remained of snow on the field after efforts were made to get the field ready for play, didn’t affect the Wolfpack on the opening drive of the game.It took the Wolfpack just six plays to go 44 yards to score the game’s first touchdown. Quarterback Ross Schindler had 25 yards rushing on the drive, including a 20-yard run. He got the touchdown on a one-yard plunge. However, on the drive, fullback Blake Anderson went down with an ankle injury and did not return. Filling his spot admirably was reserve Blake Schrage.
